Alpine Orchard - Chapter 222

[Chapter 222 Zhou Kang]

Emerald cantaloupe, Ye Mo also plans to save some seeds, try to water more spiritual springs, and see if the seed genes can be stabilized.

But these are things for the future.

Ye Mo took Secretary Luo and the others around the watermelon fields, explaining how to plant these watermelons…

planting, grafting, hardening, vine management, fruit retention, and when to apply fertilizer and how much fertilizer to apply.

It was also the first year for Ye Mo to grow watermelons, but during this process, Ye Mo read a lot of books on watermelon management. Theory plus practice, the current Ye Mo dares to grow watermelons by himself even if he doesn’t have a spiritual spring.

“Planting in January, will the temperature be too low?” Secretary Luo is from a farming family. Although his family has never grown watermelons, they have at least a basic understanding of how to grow melons and fruits in the countryside.

“The planting was in February.” Ye Mo said: “The temperature this year is good. Except for a few days when it rains and the temperature is remote, most of the time the temperature is conducive to the growth of melons and fruits.” It

rained in February and March, very small Little drizzle, and a few days will be cloudy.

Ye Mo continued: “Look at the weather forecast, mainly the weather in Dongmen Town. There is a weather station in Dongmen Town. The distance from the nearest weather station to Dongmen Town is about seven or eight kilometers in a straight line. If the weather is severe If there are any changes, we will cover the melon seedlings with plastic film in advance…”

This year, these watermelons and cantaloupe have been covered with plastic film three times in total. Once covered for one day, once for two days, and once for three days…

Plastic film is not expensive. It ‘s labor-intensive…

Hongshan Town and Dongmen Town are separated by the Jinsha River.

Dozens of acres of melon fields are filled with a faint sweet smell, with bees and butterflies flying around.

Speaking of which, Ye Mo hasn’t applied pesticides yet.

Because of the large reservoir, the ecology on the mountain seems to have improved.

When he came here last year, Ye Mo rarely saw butterflies.

Now, there are quite a lot of butterflies on the mountain, especially white butterflies. There are white butterflies, the kind with two pairs of big wings each with a big black spot…

This kind of butterfly was quite common when Ye Mo was a child. In recent years, quite rare.

After looking at the cantaloupe, I went to look at the netted melon.

It’s not yet time to pick the netted melons, but they are very beautiful in size and appearance.

Secretary Luo and the others took a look, then said goodbye and left.

Chen Shan stayed. He has nothing to do now, so he helps label and load the melons.

Ye Mo also went back to pick melons.

…

in Guangzhou.

Ye Mo’s first batch of melons has been delivered.

The purchase price of 18 yuan, after arriving at the market, passed the quality inspection and entered the market…

This batch of cantaloupe did not enter the store at all. After the quality inspection, it was directly taken to the warehouse. Someone is already waiting at the warehouse.

Marketing manager Zhou Kang entered the warehouse with the car.

“Bosses, the inspection has begun.” Zhou Kang said with a smile.

More than a dozen people, including distributors and distributors, gathered around.

Some of them had seen the samples before, and some hadn’t…

The cold chain truck opened, and a sweet smell that could arouse people’s appetite overflowed.

Zhou Kang brought out two boxes of melons and said, “I can assure you that this is the best melon in our market.”

“Although the goods are good, the price is too expensive.” A dealer complained road.

“Good products are not afraid of expensive.” Zhou Kang said: “The quality of this batch of melons, I shipped it for 30 yuan, which is already very cheap. If you don’t believe me, ask the boss Kuang what the price of the top-quality melons he bought last year .”

Boss Kuang smiled and said nothing.

Wei Youming looked at several local fruit distributors, their eyes were shining.

“Only this car?” A boss from Shenzhen asked.

“This is the first car, and there will be more in the future.” Zhou Kang said: “The growth cycle of these melons is very long, and they can be supplied stably until mid-May. However, it is hard to say whether the price will be repaid in the future. These melons It’s a hot item, and the bosses of our company are all guarding the melon fields to grab it…”

“Is it that exaggerated? Open one and let me see.” This is the boss from Zhuhai, who mainly distributes fruits and vegetables to Xiangjiang, and I heard some Such a batch of top-quality melons was found here after many inquiries.

This boss from Zhuhai is also the channel that Li Xuebin and his company are trying to open up.

“I’ll open a few for everyone to taste, and then we’ll talk about quotas.” Zhou Kang said, took a knife and cut a few, said: “The skin of melon is very thin, you can eat it with the skin.” In

the market here in Guangzhou, there are many People call melons, not muskmelons. Anyway, it’s all the same thing…

The moment the melon was cut, the aroma became much stronger in an instant.

Zhou Kang cut more than a dozen and said: “They are all carefully selected super-excellent melons, whether it is sweetness, fragrance, taste…I dare say that there is no better than this.”

Zhuhai Big Boss He gave a thumbs up and said, “Where are these melons produced?”

“The address on the label. These melons grow on a mountain at an altitude of 1,300 meters…” Zhou Kang said, taking out his mobile phone: “Let me show you the video. ”

The video taken by Li Xuebin shows a watermelon field, a muskmelon field, and finally… an immature netted melon.

“There are some netted melons planted in Gaoshanping Orchard, but they are not yet ripe. Let’s take a look at the color and appearance… Does it look like a Yubari honeydew melon?”

“Yes.” The boss from Shenzhen nodded: “Very good. Beautiful. The video hasn’t been processed, has it?”

“It’s directly shot, with original quality.”

“Then these honeydew melons are very beautiful. Are they red meat or not?”

“I opened one before, and it had greenish-yellow flesh. At that time, the honeydew melons were not yet ripe, but they were already very sweet, with a unique fragrance.” Zhou Kang then clicked open He watched the next video and said: “Gaoshanping is a large flat in Dashan. Here is the edge of Gaoshanping, look at these environments… the village under the mountain, the distant view. Gaoshanping is in Hongshan Town, Yancheng County, Dashan District. This The boss of Gao Shanping is definitely a foolish person, a technical madman. Look at this, the big watermelon cultivated by the boss of Gao Shanping…”

“When is the video?”

“It was only shot a few days ago.” Zhou Kang said: “Boss Ye from Gaoshanping has a good relationship with Mr. Li. The Hongshan Town where they are located is engaged in ecological agriculture construction. Our Mr. Li agreed to help them promote it, so we can get the sales of these melons.”

These big bosses laughed. laugh.

Boss in Shenzhen: “These big watermelons and the previous small watermelons should have been cultivated at the same time, right?”

“The big watermelons were planted in December last year. But, these big watermelons were planted by Ye Boss for others. Guess how much each of these watermelons can sell for?”

“Such a big watermelon, at least… two or three thousand a piece.” Bigness is one factor, and another factor is good looks.

“One for 30,000 yuan.” Zhou Kang ate a mouthful of melons, and continued: “Cultivating super-large watermelons in winter is extremely difficult. Moreover, they are edible super-large watermelons. The taste is similar to that of watermelon. Even, the sweetness is even higher.”

“This… has something.” A few knowledgeable bosses said, “How many catties are these watermelons?”

“The smallest, 180 catties Above. Eighty percent of them weigh more than 200 catties…the largest one is close to 300 catties. But the biggest watermelons are grafted with wax gourds. Looking at the shape of these melons, they are not too beautiful.” The picture clicked out.

“It’s close to three hundred catties each. These watermelons… are already very beautiful.”

“Such a big watermelon can really taste like the watermelons with peeled skins before, and can it be guaranteed not to be hollow?” asked the boss from Zhujiang.

“I can guarantee it. These watermelons grow naturally, and it takes 5 months from planting to maturity.”

“Are there any hormones? Such a big watermelon looks a little scary.”

“Guaranteed no hormones. These watermelons need a lot of High-grade organic fertilizers, most of which are urea and compound fertilizers, do not use pesticides. Those watermelons have also been tested before, and there are no pesticide residues.” Zhou Kang said: “These watermelons, the boss will eat the leaves grown. The growers themselves Don’t worry about the watermelon you eat.”

Everyone smiled: “That’s right.”

“In this world…some fish farmers dare not eat their own fish, and some chicken farmers dare not eat their own chickens…”

“Such a big How do you eat the watermelon? Three hundred catties…according to the head count, at least it is enough for more than a hundred people to eat.”

Zhou Kang said with a smile: “These big watermelons are specially cultivated by the owner of a restaurant and resort. , used for events, such as large parties, weddings, banquets, etc. Dozens or even hundreds of people share together.”
